Windows 10: Why do I still have Microsoft family restrictions even though I’m not a child and I left...

I’ve recently had some apps that have been blocked by the Microsoft family and I asked my organizer to check if anything was blocked but nothing was, I even created a new account on my computer and logged in and everything and every app was blocked including the Microsoft store and many system processes. Every time I press the send email to ask for permission and it always comes up with something is wrong. I even joined the family back and removed all my restrictions but everything is still blocked and I can’t seem to remove them at all.

Microsoft family restrictions

Hi,

You actually need your parent to turn off any restrictions on your account. I'm afraid you need to get yourself back to your family temporarily. These are the instructions for an adult account.

• Go to account.microsoft.com/family and sign in with your Microsoft account.
• To remove a child, find their name, then select Content restrictions. Turn off any settings you may have enabled. Then go back to your family’s page, find the child’s name again, and select More options > Remove
  from family.
• If you want to remove a child because they’re now an adult, or if an adult account has been misclassified as a child account, they’ll need to verify
  their account.

I personally think you should be good without doing the third step, but I can't give you a guarantee.

Hope it does the trick. In case of any issues, I'm happy to help you more when needed. If it worked, please mark the answer as helpful.
